19. Demons and Humans (1)

Katy froze at the sight of a young demon and human couple.

The same was true of Mercy, who raised her head.

The first to speak was Mine, a woman on the other side.

“Why, seeing that you are a demon, do you want to cancel your promise to step down? I warn you in advance, but I will not die easily.”

Mine took a step forward while protecting the human man.

That appearance stimulated several scenes in Kati’s memory.

The Mine woman, who was staring at Kati, who couldn’t say anything, tilted her head.

“… Wait, are you a Mine too?”

Katie struggled to answer.

“… yes.”

“Your energy is so weak… . That doesn’t mean he’s weak… .”

Mine looked Kati up and down and sighed deeply as if relieved.

“I’m glad you’re Mine. I don’t know why you’re accompanying the elf, but that’s not what I’m talking about.”

“how… .”

“yes?”

“How is that… .”

Kati’s head slightly lowered and touched the demon woman’s belly.

The place that must have conceived the seed of the two, swollen to the full as if childbirth was imminent.

At Kati’s question, the Mine woman scratched her cheek shyly.

“Even if they are the same demon… Ask something like that in the first meeting… ?”

The human male also seemed to have loosened his guard somewhat, his cheeks blushing and clearing his throat.

While Mercy was bewildered, Kati made a serious correction.

“It’s not like that. How can a demon and a human… Is that possible?”

“Ah, did you mean that? I again.”

The female Mine laughed as if it was not a big deal.

She glanced at my husband and replied.

“Well, maybe you don’t know. Demons and humans are… originally possible. If you think about it, don’t you want to do something impossible? Demons are creatures that reproduce just like humans.”

“… Demons do reproductive activities?”

“Of course. You’re a Mine, but that’s… .”

In the world, it is completely unknown how demons are born and how they increase in number, let alone the origins of demons.

The female Mine, who was listening to the story, was silent with her eyes down, as if she had any guesses.

then she said

“Have you ever been dragged into a Mine soldier training plan before?”

“… yes.”

“ha… . Oh My God. I never thought I would see the victim here.”

What should I do, the woman said, conflicting as if to say something.

Katie didn’t want to be here anymore.

It was hard to see the two of them together, let alone that woman.

I didn’t even wonder what that woman would say in the future.

didn’t want to hear

The more you know, the harder it will be to predict what you might end up doing.

It shouldn’t have happened.

Before something terrible happens, Kati decided to get out of here.

“Okay, I’ll go.”

“Hey you… .”

“The party is waiting for you.”

Carty immediately turned around.

The demon woman said to her back.

“… Are you a human? the group.”

Pausing for a moment, Kati replied.

“… yes.”

“I see… . Well, there is no life in the world without a story. If you’re not going to attack this side, I have nothing more to say.”

“… I will never see you again.”

Kati spit it out like that and quickly went back the way she came.

Rather than returning to Ian, it was a movement that seemed to run away.

Said Kati, walking through the woods.

“Mercy.”

“yes… .”

“Keep it a secret from your master.”

“you… .”

Mercy was about to say something, but shut her mouth.

“… Let’s go.”

It was something that Mercy did not know.

I knew that elves and humans could do that.

I don’t think it’s possible for demons and humans to do that… .

In particular, isn’t it known that Majin’s physiological instinct is to want to kill humans?

‘Poor thing… .’

Not as much as Ian, but Mercy has known Carty for a long time, so he notices her changes quite well.

Kati was now more nervous than ever, and she was afraid.

‘How can the world be so savage… .’

Sitting on Kati’s pocket and leaning back, Mercy smiled bitterly.

‘I’m not in a position to worry about others… .’

Ian set up camp right where Kati and Mercy found him.

It was also a good place to get water because it was close to the river.

In order to use his time as efficiently as possible, Ian conducted a simple training.

There was no space to run wide, so it was training to flip two hourglasses back and forth in time.

Today’s main observation target was Lucia.

‘Is he basically in good physical strength?’

Lucia’s stamina was considerably better than expected.

Of course, the comparison target was Vivian and Helena’s early days, so they were excellent, but compared to the current two, they were not enough.

It was only natural that Vivien and Helena consistently handled Ian’s schedule.

‘Even considering that, my stamina isn’t bad. Was it because he was a nobleman, so he didn’t have to eat?’

Elixir replenishes physical strength and heals curses, as well as eliminates most curses through mediation, and she was incomparable to before.

‘Still, it bothers me that there is still a unique curse… . I don’t know what effect the curse is having.’

That will be resolved if you go to the Elven Forest with Mercy’s help.

If you can’t find a solution there, then there is also a way to visit the magic tower.

“Let’s stop here for today. Lucia is doing well for the first day.”

“Whoa, is that so? It seems far away.”

Lucia wiped away the sweat and glanced at Vivian and Helena.

The two were intent on cooling off their bodies, flapping their entire clothes in sweat.

“The starting line is different, but it can’t be helped.”

“It is.”

Even though her body was tired, Lucia did not look tired.

Rather, it seemed a little reminded.

“thanks.”

Lucia said with a bright smile.

“I never thought the day would come again when I could run this long or move my body so vigorously.”

“I will be running longer, but it would be difficult if I were already thanking you.”

“Hmm. Are you looking forward to that?”

Lucia grinned and walked to the river with Vivian and Helena.

‘I’m glad he seems to be adapting well.’

Ian’s gaze moved to Kati and Mercy, who were watching from one side.

Mercy is as usual, but Kati has a strange feeling today.

I get the impression that I am dazed or that I am out of my mind.

It’s been like that since I went to find the camp site and came back.

‘Even if you ask, he says nothing happened… .’

It’s definitely not without a reason, but he doesn’t tell me at all.

‘There are people nearby, but they’re not dangerous, so it’s probably not because of them.’

I even asked Mercy separately just in case, but Mercy answered the same as Kati.

Unlike Kati, Mercy is good at lying.

Enough to fool Ian.

Ian knew that too, but he didn’t think Mercy was in a situation where he would lie to him.

‘It’s no big deal… .’

Ian didn’t ask any more because he didn’t want to forcefully dig out something he was trying to keep a secret.

“Mercy. Let’s prepare dinner.”

“Ah, yes! Let’s go.”

There was no need to hold on for a long time to a worry that could not be answered.

Ian immediately prepared dinner with Mercy.

Even then, Kati sat in the corner and stared blankly at the sky.

*

“Ouch… .”

The demon woman lay down and moaned in pain.

Cold sweat poured down his body like rain, and the pain that started in his lower abdomen spread to the extremities of his body as if it were crushing his whole body.

“Ugh… !”

“honey… .”

Her husband could do nothing but sit by and hold her hand.

The day they both hoped for and feared at the same time had come.

delivery.

However, neither of them knew much about childbirth or delivery.

Even if I wanted to seek help or advice somewhere, I couldn’t go out with her as a demon.

Among demons, her characteristics stood out.

“Huh, uh, uh… .”

The man said as she breathed as calmly as possible.

“Maybe I couldn’t ask him for help… ? He said that he had a party, so I wonder if you’ll understand even if you’re a Mine… .”

“Ugh… . No, leave it alone… . You know. How do the children who escaped the experiment live? .”

“still… .”

“You will want to live far away from Mine… . Ugh!”

It was very nice to meet my fellow countrymen after a long time.

It’s also a kind of people who don’t want to be wary of humans or kill them.

However, when he found out that his own people were both victims and survivors of the Mine soldier training plan, he felt sorry for them.

I can understand the reaction that seemed to be reluctant to myself.

“So… just let it live… . Ugh!”

The strength of the joined hands grew stronger and stronger.

The lower part of the body felt heavy, and the fear that something might happen soon came.

The reason I was holding on to just now quickly melted away.

The most terrifying possibility ever contemplated rears its head.

It is not that she gets hurt or dies in childbirth.

If the child to be born dies because of their clumsy handling… .

“… Let’s go find it.”

The woman was forced to reverse her decision.

“Uh, yes. yes, yes… .”

The man carefully raised her up.

“It will be difficult because your energy is very weak, but you will be able to chase it somehow… . Once out… .”

The two came out and saw a line of black smoke rising in the distance.

It meant that someone was lighting a fire.

The only person I could think of who would do such a thing in this remote forest was that maid from earlier.

The two headed straight for the smoke rising.
